>> that was the challenge in this election. there was a lot more effort, and i can attest to it because i spent literally about two and a half months on the road working in the evangelical community and registering. we registered a half million new voters. it was interest willing -- interesting one of the establishment consultant said evangelicals will vote for romney. they have no where else to go. in the post mortum they did. they stayed at home. the numbers were down in terms of the overall percentage in the numbers voting. the reason was they weren't motivated. we heard over and over, they are so put off by barack obama's policies they will turn out. that was a factor. it got them about 80% of the way, but the rest of the way was carried by believing in a candidate's vision and message for the future, and it didn't happen. >> what happens to the republican party and its prospect for elections if it decides it will just sort of disengage from value issues which that is the conversation being held. >> i think you will continu
